Chili Oil Garlic Butter Pasta

Cook pasta in a pot of boiling water according to package directions.

In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine chili oil, soy sauce, and honey. Mix well to create the sauce.

In a large pan over medium heat, melt the butter.

Add the minced garlic and stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Pour the sauce mixture into the pan with the garlic butter.

Using a spider strainer, transfer the cooked pasta directly to the pan. Add a splash of reserved pasta water.

Toss everything together until the pasta is well-coated with the sauce.

Add the grated parmesan cheese and minced chives to the pan.

Give it a final mix to combine all the ingredients.

Serve in a bowl and garnish with an egg yolk, more parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of chili oil, if desired.
